About

Hello! I'm a Deputy Editor with over six years of experience running Business Insider's lifestyle and entertainment freelance division. I started as an intern and have successfully built a thriving team of hundreds of freelancers and numerous in-house editors. Over the years, I've played a pivotal role in setting up organized systems and efficient workflows for collaborating with freelance writers worldwide. I have also grown the freelance roster by over 197% in just a few years.I have elevated the section's traffic by 180%, now constituting 16%+ of BI's overall monthly traffic. Under my direction, my division is the top traffic-earner across Business Insider, bringing in tens of millions of readers each month. We also have some of the highest velocity sitewide and typically publish 80-100 stories each month. My true passion is collaborating with writers and other editors from around the globe to create strong, informative, and interesting stories you won't find anywhere else. My editorial experience includes analysis pieces, opinion articles, quick-turnaround news stories, features, personal essays, and large slideshows.I love shaping engaging narratives and creating unique, compelling, and informative content that stands out.
